The first projections for 2017 MLB Regular Season are out. As was the case with 2016 projections, the 2017 version are also a result of simulations for each regular season game without any "smoothing process" taking place in the end. What this means, is that I haven't take into consideration possible trades, which might make teams stronger/weaker (usually at the time around the trade deadline). That's why the difference (measured in wins) between the best and worst team is not as big as one could imagine.
